ASTEROID CITY (2024) .... no trailer due to actor ages
World-changing events spectacularly disrupt the annual Asteroid Day celebration in an American desert town. Imdb
A Wes Anderson movie, a VERY Wes Anderson movie in terms of the cinematography; colour pallette; mirror images' split screen and cast list. Most of them are here - Jason Schwartzman; Scarlett Johansson; Edward Norton; with cameos from the likes of Tilda Swinton; William Defoe. Brian Cranston & Tom Hanks too.

Some days ago we've watched this film as well, and I can only agree to your sound rating!

TAKE COVER (2024)
A burned-out professional sniper finds himself trapped in an all-glass penthouse by a lethal competitor and must find a way to survive and escape with little to no cover between him and the killer. Imdb
I hadn't realised this was a Scott Adkin film when it popped up as a recommendation but I was tired tonight and this was only 90mins so thought I'd give it a go anyway. As it turned out it was only 8mins and 30secs before I turned this utter crap off - so I will get an early night after all.

THE CROW (2024)
Soulmates Eric and Shelly are brutally murdered. Given a chance to save the love of his life, Eric must sacrifice himself and traverse the worlds of the living and the dead, seeking revenge. Imdb
So Bill Skarsgard; Danny Huston & FKA Twigs star in this fantasy/superhero/gothic/action/horror. It's a bit of a mess but has it's moments. The first 40mins or so could, and should, have been edited or reshot to take around 15 to 20 mins. I've never heard of her but apparently FKA Twigs is known as a singer/songwriter and dancer which I hope she succeeds in 'cos she ain't much of an actress. The movie drags a little in places but some sections, at the opera for instance with it's stylish ultra-violence are really good.

THE SUBSTANCE (2024)
A fading celebrity takes a black-market drug: a cell-replicating substance that temporarily creates a younger, better version of herself. Imdb
Wow, this is a stylish, bloody, body-horror movie - think Cronenberg on steroids. Demi Moore; Margaret Qualley & Dennis Quaid are the 3 main leads and they are all great. The cinematography/camerawork/editing produces some striking imagery (check the trailer for the "style"). An atmospheric soundscape adds to the dark mood of this dark satire on body objectification. A jaw-dropping, astonishing piece of work.

THE END (2024)
A post-apocalyptic story about a rich family living in a salt mine converted into a luxurious home. The earth around them has apparently been destroyed, but their son has never seen the outside world. As a young girl appears at the entrance of the bunker, the balance of the family is threatened. Imdb
The algorithyms sent me towards this as it stars George MacKay and Tilda Swinton, as well as Michael Shannon and Tim McInnerny so those are the plus points. On the downside it is a utterly boring and stupid plot - I mean they have supposedly been living there underground for 20+ years but the cars still run and they have dozens of changes of clothes all in perfect condition AND it's a bloody musical with lots; and lots and lots of songs. Even if they had cut all the songs it would still have been boring... but maybe 45 or 60 mins shorter than it's 2hr 28min runtime
Truely awful, even if you watch it at x8 speed to see if anything interesting happened - spoiler alert - it doesn't. Avoid.

AD VITAM (2025 France)
After escaping an attempted murder, Franck Lazareff must find his wife Leo, who has been kidnapped by a mysterious group of armed men. He is caught up by his past and plunged into a state affair that is beyond him. (IMdB)
A very exciting film from France - you should watch it on NETFLIX. A very good entertainment and really recommended!

EVIL UNDER THE SUN (1982)
Rewatched this now-classic film with a stellar cast including Sir Peter Ustinov, Roddy McDowall, Diana Rigg and the late great Dame Maggie Smith. In particular, wanted to watch another film with Maggie Smith, seeing her sad passing last year, she will be much missed.
Based on the Agatha Christie novel of the same name, the story is set on an island hence the "locked room" premise that the perpetrator is one of the guests on the resort. Maggie Smith in this adapted screenplay is the proprietress of a slightly-faded hotel & resort, welcoming a number of couples, including a famous and temperamental actress, played by Diana Rigg. Her husband is trying to ignore his wife's brazen flirting with the male guests, and when she is murdered, Poirot has to solve this seemingly impossible mystery.
In particular, I loved the sparring between Diana Rigg and Maggie Smith, when the latter but takes a swipe at her rival saying they were both in a chorus, quipping that "Even in those days, she could always throw her legs up in the air higher than any of us… and wider.". Camp!
Of course, one cannot overlook the starring role played by Peter Ustinov as the detective; whilst not true to the novel's depiction is played with a light touch, and he comes across to me more like one's slightly eccentric uncle... a little odd but overall very lovable, benevolent but with razor-sharp powers of observation.
The director is none other than Guy Hamilton of James Bond fame, and the whole film actually has that glamourous touch and exotic location that hints of that genre. But more sinister than dastardy megalomaniacs and deadly gadgets, it's the equally frightening evil that lurks in seemingly "normal hearts and minds" that plots and puts into motion this fiendish murder.

GET AWAY (2024)
A family's vacation to a remote getaway takes an unexpected turn when they discover the island they're on is inhabited by a serial killer. Imdb
This is a comedy/horror with an alternative title SVALTA set in Sweden but filmed in Finland apparently. I grabbed it 'cos it stars, and is written by Nick Frost & Aisling Bea (and apart from them and the actors playing their kids the remainng cast are I think Fins.)
I gave up at around 40mins, some of the script was poor and poor acting too, especially from the 2 kids.

'Queer' 2024
From the book by William S Burroughs. Well made but an impossible book to do justice to. Daniel Craig does deserve an award for most number of cigarettes smoked in one film, more even than Humphery Bogart. That's dedication to the part.
But sadly, some books just cannot make a satisfying movie.

You are totally right - in my opinion, there is only ONE book where story of the book and story of the film is one-to-one converted, and that is GONE WITH THE WIND.

"Shaft" 1971
"Superfly" 1972
Double dose of the two great classics of the blaxploitation genre. Very dated today, strictly of their time.
Amazing fashions, amazing cars, and the music; Issac Hayes and Curtis Mayfield!
Film music can't get any better than that.

Upgrade (2018)
Set in the near-future, technology controls nearly all aspects of life. But when the world of Grey, a self-labeled technophobe, is turned upside down, his only hope for revenge is an experimental computer chip implant.
This movie was on my watchlist for quite a while. I finally decided to watch it when I noticed Leigh Whannell (Saw, Insidious) was the writer and director. What I didn't notice while watching it was that the lead actor was NOT Tom Hardy, but was an actor named Logan Marshall-Green.
I enjoyed it. The fight scenes were pretty good. The story was a little darker than I expected. Makes you worry about how AI will be used in the future.
